[length: 05:22]
[00:23.94]A shapeless piece of steel
[00:29.02]That’s all I claim to be
[00:34.25]This hammer pounds to give me form
[00:38.86]This flame, it melts my dreams
[00:44.95]I glow with fire and fury
[00:49.93]As I’m twisted like a vine
[00:55.45]My final shape, my final form
[01:00.04]I’m sure I’m bound to find
[01:05.35]So dream a little
[01:07.99]Dream for me
[01:10.35]In hopes that I’ll remain
[01:16.75]And cry a little
[01:18.49]Cry for me
[01:20.45]So I can bear the flames
[01:27.12]And hurt a little
[01:28.79]Hurt for me
[01:30.97]My future is untold
[01:37.33]But my dreams are not the issue here
[01:41.62]For they, the hammer holds
[01:48.14]And the water, it cools me gray
[01:53.16]And the hurt’s subdued somehow
[01:58.73]I have my shape, this sharpened point
[02:02.99]What is my purpose now?
[02:09.23]And the question still remains
[02:14.67]What am I to be?
[02:19.87]Perhaps some perfect piece of art
[02:24.18]Displayed for all to see
[02:29.68]So dream a little
[02:32.15]Dream for me
[02:34.31]In hopes that I’ll remain
[02:40.95]And cry a little
[02:43.44]Cry for me
[02:44.93]So I can bear the flames
[02:51.27]And hurt a little
[02:53.32]Hurt for me
[02:55.07]My future is untold
[03:01.52]But my dreams are not the issue here
[03:05.97]For they, the hammer holds
[03:27.38]The hammer pounds again
[03:34.99]But flames I do not feel
[03:40.18]This force that drives me, helplessly
[03:44.86]Through flesh and wood reveal
[03:51.14]A burn that burns much deeper
[03:56.14]It’s more than I can stand
[04:01.67]The reason for my life was to take
[04:06.34]The life of a guiltless man
[04:11.34]So dream a little
[04:14.35]Dream for me
[04:16.16]In hopes that I’ll remain
[04:22.85]And cry a little
[04:24.38]Cry for me
[04:26.84]So I can bear the pain
[04:32.93]And hurt a little
[04:34.93]Hurt for me
[04:37.11]My future is so bold
[04:43.47]But my dreams are not the issue here
[04:48.27]For they, the hammer holds
[04:53.96]This task before me may seem unclear
[04:59.05]But it, my maker holds
